His first steps are not decent. At least 2x he didn't even make one. And other times he's so shallow that the DE has the edge before the ball is to the QB. That is a problem.


You don't have a problem with him exposing his chest and allowing defenders to dictate the play? Okay. That's good for you but you won't win many games with that. He's not strong enough to consistently be wide and muscle guys. Very few are. 

Yes we do not know and I even said it has been designed that way. He's not pushing them wide though. He's just not engaging them and hoping the ball is out. If the play IS NOT quick, he's never in position to help extend the play because he's giving up the edge automatically.  

You are missing the nuance and the reasons why this is a problem. 

This is a problem because it means we CANNOT do anything but these quick plays. 
If you choose to ignore that and think it's fine the QB can't drop in the pocket or can't extend a play that's fine. But don't complain if we struggle to throw deep or have a lot of turnovers when defenders sit on the routes because they know it has to be a quick throw. You can't have both things. 

Well sorry I'll stick  with my coaching analysis  and I was happy to hear Lapham someone who probably knows the game much s better than both of us that he played decent and took a step forward good enough for me the great part is this debate will move on to the next game.
